I've struggled a lot with my feelings about Barack Obama. Prior to this campaign, I didn't really have any intense feeling either way about him. He was an inspiring orator and would become a successful politician as he continued. As the campaign dragged on I saw a lot of things out of him and about him that I didn't like ... very worrisome things to me. But in an intense campaign such as this one, you see that about everyone.

The one thing I wish is that he would quit giving the same inspirational diatribe every time he gives a speech. It's the same thing over and over. I'm tired of his bullshitting. Yes, he is a great speaker and he gives some great inspirational speeches, but it's time to quit with the fluff. I want some substance. I want less YES WE CAN, and more YES WE WILL AND HERE IS HOW.

Hillary needs to be on the ticket. For Obama and the democratic party to ignore the millions and millions of people who cast votes for her would be irresponsible and reprehensible. There were two very strong, standout candidates all along in the democratic race, no one even came close to touching either of them. Not to have them on the same ticket would be pathetic, and will cause me to think twice about the democratic party from here on out ...including in November.

And for the record ... if Hillary had pulled out the same victory that Obama did and the roles were reversed, I would feel the same way. He should be the VP - no ifs, ands or buts about it. There are two VERY CLEAR candidates that the American people want on the democratic ticket, no one else should be on it.
